The fact that Supreme Court Justices are essentially appointed for life does not make sense to me.聽 Have the legislators or president ever tried to impose term limits?聽 聽One might think that senators have shied away from that as many of them hold office until they are very old.

There has been lots (and lots and lots) of talk in the academy about term limits, but very little in Congress.  I imagine someone, somewhere has proposed a term limit amendment, but one has never seriously been debated.  The Biden Commission discusses such reforms with, again, little or no political follow up.
